SUMMARY:Oak Bay Coolkit: Helping Nature Thrive in Oak Bay
DESCRIPTION:Oak Bay Coolkit Presents: Helping Nature Thrive in Oak Bay\nJoin us for our next Oak Bay Coolkit presentation! \nBiodiversity Begins at Home – Wylie Thomas\nBiodiversity loss is accelerating globally\, with scientists warning it could rival past mass extinctions. Here in Oak Bay\, however\, each of us can take meaningful action. By planting native species from our local Garry Oak ecosystem\, we can support biodiversity while creating landscapes more resilient to climate change—better adapted to longer summer droughts and rising temperatures. \nNature Based Cities – Patricia Dijak\nCities around the world are integrating nature into urban design to protect residents from extreme heat\, flooding\, drought\, and pollution. Explore our unique ecosystems in BC and Canada\, and learn which six of the CRD’s 10 globally significant Key Biodiversity areas are located in Oak Bay. Discover what individuals and governments are doing to protect and enhance these fascinating ecosystems for future generations\, including the new Camossung UNESCO biosphere proposal.\n \nYou’re invited to attend this free event\, no pre-registration required! \nLocation: Windsor Pavilion\, 2451 Windsor Road\nDate: Wednesday\, September 17\, 7:00 p.m.

Workshops are two and a half hours long\, open to up to 50 participants per session\, and registration is required.\n\nBackground\n\n\nIn May 2025\, Council directed staff to launch a broad community-wide engagement process to ensure the updated strategy reflects local needs and perspectives\, specifically related to the nine proposed cycling routes identified as key to building a cycling network. \nYour input helps shape Active Transportation in Oak Bay\n\n\nThis first phase of engagement (September\, 2025) focuses on gathering insights to inform an updated ATS as well as gathering high-level feedback to refine nine proposed cycling routes. \nThis input will inform both the updated ATS and the new Cycling Implementation Plan\, which will be presented to Council in 2026. \nHow do I register?\n\n\nVisit our Active Transportation Connect Oak Bay page\, where you can fill out a form telling us which workshop you would like to attend.
